Mosquitos!
I've seen a lot of people posting on facebook about those home-made mosquito traps. Has anybody tried them yet to know if they work or not? With all the flooding in MI, the mosquitos are the worst...
I buy the permethrin in quart container for $34 that is a 37% solution and will last for years. I dilute 1oz. permethrin per 80oz. of water and then spray the mixture on our clothes using a $5 garden pump sprayer and let the clothing drip dry. It costs less than a nickel per item and the treatment lasts though 50 washings. I treat shirts, shorts, pants, and socks.
